I think we can all agree with what the word "success" means on a sales site, right ? If it's not going to compete or more importantly start a huge market then why is nvidia even bothering ? I don't get why nvidia continues to sell the shield if it doesn't generate a sizable profit. 


That it met the company's sales targets? Nvidia is not trying to make a mass market device, it's a niche device. It's probably high margin like all Nvidia's other products. And as I said it's a tool to test their streaming tech and also to advertise their Tegra chipset.

 

It may have reached it it's sales target but their still going to have to step up their game intensly to be competitive. I think they'll need something alot bigger than the shield to advertise their tegra chipset such as getting the new tegra chipset to be in the iphone or samsung galaxy series.
